The "Google Chromecast with Android TV" was a stick that was sold for $25, and it runs full Android TV. Google would have to abandon Android TV before it would be bricked.
They were sold as cable box replacements, running the YouTube TV app, rather than their ability to "cast" a phone screen to a TV.
- kyle-rb 2y agoIt's called "Chromecast with Google TV" and it wasn't $25 until they made the cheaper version that doesn't do 4k. Afaik Google TV is to Android TV what Pixel OS is to Android. Both the "Chromecast with Google TV" and the new "Google TV Streamer" are technically running "full Android TV". Also they were sold mainly as a Roku/Fire stick competitor. Maybe they marketed it alongside YouTube TV but also there's a dedicated Netflix button on the remote.
